Equity Indexed Annuities Lawyers

From our offices in Miami, Los Angeles, and New York we serve clients statewide, nationwide and worldwide.

An equity-indexed annuity is a contract between an investor and an insurance company. The investor makes either a lump sum payment or a series of payments, and the insurance company credits the investor with a return that is based on changes in an equity index, such as the S&P 500 Index. The insurance company typically guarantees a minimum return, which can vary.

After the lump sum payment or the series of payments are completed, the insurance company makes periodic payments to the investor under the terms of your contract, unless the investor chooses to receive a lump sum value based on the contract’s terms. Equity-indexed annuities are complicated products. You should understand how the index-linked interest rate is calculated before you buy the product.

Equity-Indexed Annuity and Losses

Can you lose money buying an equity-indexed annuity? Notwithstanding any representations of absolute safety, you can lose money in an equity-indexed annuity. If you need your money and need to cancel your annuity early, you may have to pay significant surrender charges and tax penalties. Even with a guaranteed return, you can still lose money if the guarantee is based on an amount that is less than the full amount of the investment. It can take several years for an annuity’s minimum guarantee to “break even.”
